I remember it was that Wednesday
Am/DG/D
Oh when it rained and it rained
DmAm7DmAm/DDm6
They traipsed mud all over the house
DmAm7DmAm/DGadd9/DAm/D
It took hours and hours to scrub it out
AmEm/GD/F#
All over the hall carpet
AmD/F#
I took my mop and bucket
DmAm7DmGadd9/D
And I cleaned and I cleaned
Bbadd9
The kitchen floor
GmG6
Until it sparkled
Am7DmAm/DDm6Am7DmAm7DmAm/DDm6DmAm/D
Then I took my laundry basket
Dm6
Put the linen all in it
DmAm7DmAm/DDm6Bbadd9
And everything I could fit in it
F/AEb Cmadd9 Eb
And all our dirty clothes that hadn't gone into the wash
Bb/DCm
And all your shirts and jeans and things
C11 Dm11
And put them in the new washing machine

Am7DmAm/DDm6Am/DDmAm/DDm6Am/DDmAm7DmAm/DGadd9/D
I watched them go 'round and 'round
DmAm7DmAm/DGadd9/DDm
My blouse wrapping itself around your trousers
Am7DmAm/DDm6
Oh and the waves are going out
DmAm7DmAm/DDm6
My skirt floating up around my waist
DmAm7DmAm/DGadd9/D
As I wade out into the surf
AmEm/AD/F#Dm
Oh and the waves are coming in
Am7DmAm/DDm6Dm
Oh and the waves are going out
Am7DmAm/DDm6Dm
Oh and you're standing right behind me
Am7DmAm/DDm6
Little fish swim between my legs
AmEm/AD/F#Dm
Oh and the waves are coming in
Am7DmAm/DGadd9/DAm
Oh and the waves are going out
Em/ADadd9/ADm
Oh and the waves are coming in
Am7DmCsus4/2 CCsus4/2 Bb
Out of the corner of my eye
A5 Dmadd9/AAm
I think I see you standing outside
BbF/AEb
But it's just your shirt
CmEb
Hanging on the washing line
Bb/DCmEb
Waving its arm as the wind blows by
Eb6Ebmaj7
And it looks so alive
Cm9Eb
Nice and white
Cm
Just like its climbed right out
